Pre-prom, post-O's (sort of) girly fun

So I guess it seems like I've lost all passion for this blog of mine already, yeah? Well, I suppose you could say that. It's just that, sometimes you just dont want to be "exposed"? I dont know, really. Well, whatever it is, I feel like blogging a detailed one today so good luck getting to the end of this post.

I have no idea where to start. Narrating seems so difficult suddenly! Hell, I even forgot the site to go to, typing instead blogspot. com when it's supposed to be blogger.com.

SHIT. I just tipped over the basket bin under the table. Ew, my brother's disgusting. His trash is gross. Although it's supposed to be but seriously. Who throws food stuff in their room's bin?! That's why we have the kitchen bin. Boys.

I'll start with Tuesday? Nuzie and I headed over to Irah's (I'll try) to do some Amaths. So wrong, but it was fun and come on. Me? Amaths? Saw her prom stuff!!! Which got the 2 of us pretty excited. Hahah.

Got into trouble with J. Whoops. Hahah. All's cool now.

NEXT. Thursday. Let's skip Wednesday cos it was hell boring. Nicole came over, did quite a bit of kinematics which DID NOT FREAKIN' COME OUT.

After Amaths Paper 2, Irah and I trooped over to town! ;D

YEAH BAYBEH. It's been a long long while. I think we were the first two taking Amaths but not Pure Chem in town in the whole of Singapore!!! Hahah.

Had lunch at BK. And man. We couldn't stop giggling. Everything seemed funny. It was dumb! Lol. And we were pretty darn horrible too! Our bad. And! We both kept on dropping bits of food all over the place! Unglam to the max but whatever. Having girly fun isn't a crime.

SO! Went prom browsing! And I loved loved loved it. We went to Robinsons and Tangs, tried on a gazillion dresses, took photos for further reference. Even though she got her dress already, she still tried stuff for the fun of it.

Well it has been some time since just us two went out. So it was nice. (:

Inside the dressing rooms, stupid things happened. Madness. The award for best dressing room, goes to Robinsons!

Heaps of dresses strewn carelessly about

I did say madness, didn't I?

Check out the stuff draped over our arms!

I think it was fate, that dress and I. I saw it at Centrepoint and tried it on. And I did feel something for it. And then! At CK Tangs, there was this weird force pulling me to this particular rack (actually I think it's only the Greedy and Excited me not wanting to miss a single potential dress but that's besides the point).

Lo and behold. There it was. Staring at me. Begging me to get it. But the price was kinda steep and even though I've told my mum that the bunch of us are gna do the whole works, we never really got about discussing the overall budget.

Which is why I tried to get it out of my head. But I just couldn't! Hello, do not mess with the "higher powers". It's meant to be!!! She knows she belongs with me anyway.

I called Mother in the train, mentioned her and The Mother was pretty calm about it! YAY. I told you it was fate.

Oh there were so many hot shoes. Which of course, just had to cost a hundred over so.. Sigh. Velvet and the heels were amazing. Sigh. I'd rather splurge on two pairs of shoes then get 5 tops. Really.

I will get my first pair of shoes from Nine West by next year. Watch this space people! (Don't be surprised if this falls through though.)

I think time pleasantly passed by slowly even though we were having fun, acting as though we're done with O's.

9AM TOMORROW. I smell ultimate freedom. Don't you? If you are enjoying the smell now, shut up. Oh man, I cannot wait to head home only past midnight once again! Like when was the last time I came home after 9!? (HAHAH. I think it was on my birthday, but you get what I mean.)

Right. Prom browsing. Headed from one mall to the other. At Wisma, I tried this pair of heels which was soooo nice. But still I couldnt decide just yet. Besides had only about 30+ bucks on me.

AND THEN. We went to Phuture London and Irah just fell in love with this dress. (She bought one already rmb?) and you know what this crazy friend of mine did?! She went to the counter after like 5 minutes of comtemplation (HAHAHA) and paid the $50 deposit for it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. But the dress was really nice! She tried several (stupid) ways to convince herself that what she's doing is okay. It was hilarious.

NEXT UP. FRIDAY. When I write a long post, it's long. :D

I was supposed to meet Irah (this is weird, but I'll persevere) at 10.30 and the rest at 11 in town and I woke up at 10! Brilliant aren't I?

I took a different route, boarded 518 and saved about 15 minutes! But I think the fare's different. Is it? Cos I didnt realise because I dont tap out. Which reminds me!

Okay, so some day last week, I was lying down on the sofa talking to Niz on the phone. Then there was a knock on the door which is weird.

Cos all my family members have their own set of keys and when we do forget to bring, we dont knock. We bang.

Firstly because everyone will be deaf, inside the rooms unable to hear anything. And secondly, it's usually us three who forget, not my mum, and I dont think we're very patient people; we get ticked rather easily. Even if it's my mum, she'd do the smart thing which is to call the house and get someone to open the door. (yeah, the rest of us dont.)

I swear if you hear how my dad does it, you'd think it's some loan shark demanding his money.

I have derailed beyond.. wow. I go off point so darn easily.

Anyway, yes there was a knock and it turned out to be this nice Malay lady all dressed up ready for another night of visiting (with her teenage son that wasn't disappointing (; and her primary school daughter I'm guessing) asking if anybody in the house has lost a wallet.

Uh huh, I was that ignorant, bet she was shocked. See, I didnt even realise that I dropped my wallet in the bus 291. Thankfully (in this case) my IC was inside so she actually took the effort to drop by and pass it back to me!!! I thanked her profusely and she was really nice. Very gracious about my not even realising I lost my wallet.

That makes it the fourth time I lost my wallet in public and the fourth time it found its way back to me! This wallet from a fruit (lol) has gone through a lot of shit. I love it.

SO YEAH ABOUT FRIDAY. Withdrawal symptoms, forgive me.

I dropped off in front of Tangs making a (good) guess they were there. Called one of them who directed me to head on up to the ladies' section.

And I was greeted with the sight of two very familiar faces totally unexpected.

Me: WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE?!
Ambrish/Lyon: Oh they're inside the dressing room

I went over to the dressing rooms, saw Irah; Nuzie and Fatmah were inside trying dresses and demanded "What are your men - I mean boys doing here!?" LOL.

I thought it was supposed to be a Girls Only thing. Oh well. But they were helpful though very very bored. I dont think they'll ever tag along on another one of our shopping trips. Hahah.

I became the VERY EFFICIENT (Huiyun I'm not that lousy!) shopping partner and helped them with the dresses. We were at Daniel Yam. Fatmah and Nuzie were in the dressing room so Irah and I took charge! Haha. We were shoving dresses to them, one after another.

Nuzie tried this really nice one with interesting shawl/scarf thingy that makes all the difference. It was funny cos she couldnt get out of the dress! So me, the ever helpful one, helped her out. (Get it? Out?)

That's what I dont like about formal dresses. Sometimes you have no idea how to put it on/get it off. Lol.

Okay, we headed from Tangs to Robinsons (yes, always these two) to browse some more. Though Nuzie reserved her dress already, Fatmah was still looking around.

We were at the handbags area, us three discussing what's our next move. Okay, so we took quite a long time deciding. I think the boys were both amused and perhaps irritated. Sorry lah.

We passed by this accessories booth on our way to Centrepoint so okay, we took quite a bit of time figuring out what to buy. Hey, we've got to make the right choice. And there were a lot of choices.

Okay skip skip skip. Got my bag! As a birthday gift! So yay. :D Met Shez and her cousin at Robinsons, then because Shez wasnt too sure whether she'd buy Irah's dress for a very good bargain (60), the group splitted up.

The 5 of us headed on to Wisma for shoes and to collect Irah's dress while the other 3 went back to Tangs (and got lost btw).

Nuzie and I tried shoes while Ambrish sat down looking bored and the other two got us cookies! Oh I love shoes. SHOES SHOES SHOES.

I pulled Nuzie to go for a mini tour around Charles&Keith so that she can get used to walking in heels! After deciding (I made up my mind a long time ago), we paid and went next to get Irah's dress! Wait actually I cant remember. Did we collect the dress first? Hahah.

We were supposed to meet the 3 of them at 3 (HAHA) at Orchard MRT but since they got lost and will take a very long time, we decided to just head to Marina Square.

We took a long long long time deciding on the accessories! Spoilt for choice! Nuzie busted 50 over dollars on accessories can you believe it. But I think it's totally worth it.

They got me another birthday gift! Aw. Hahah.

Everyone was pretty famished by then, so we settled for LJS and yeah Ambrish very (ahem) gentlemanly paid for my meal! But hey, he did buy for Irah a drink from Starbucks so I'd say we're still not even. Kidding.

The 3 of us went to the toilet and after that, dropped by Guardian cos Nuzie wanted to get something. And you know what. In the toilet, my phone rang and it's silly annoying Najib calling to announce gleefully that the O's are over for him. He's asking for it.

Headed back, ate, waited and waited some more and finally Murny and Sadiq arrived. Their walk from City Hall seemed like forever. She got her dress and all of us eagerly showed one another what we got.

I love shopping.

So then, now it's Murny's turn to get accessories. After we helped her choose, we all went home. Hahah many thanks to Lyon for carrying my shoes and Ambrish for carrying my bag (only cos it has Nuzie's stuff inside the plastic bag!) Like I said, useful. Lol.

Oh yeah. How could I forget!? Before we had lunch/dunch we went to the arcade! You see, the boys were bored out of their minds when we were at Diva. As mentioned, useful but bored.

I suck at car racing games okay!? But I'm not bad on my phone though! Why is that so! And wow. I'm truely impressed. Irah got first twice. Once beating both Lyon and Ambrish. I'm telling you, all I need is some practice and I'll be damn good lah. (Right)

Lady in Red is numero uno

Nicole came over just now and my brains have totally fried under the heat of prom! I'm screwed. Okay anyway, tomorrow's plans look awesome too! :D

See, I'm supposed to get my dress today with my mum, but she decided that she wasnt up for it and wants to stay home. So much for wanting to see it for herself before buying!

Tomorrow, Niz is sleeping over! Oooh, more girly fun. We will be cool people going to cool places doing cool things! More shopping. I need to do a lot of things before prom. I know how this sounds. Extremely bimbotic and I dont know, stupid possibly. But yes. The whole prom process should be this way, no?

Am very grateful to Fatmah's aunt! YES, save cost there. Oh man. I'm freaking out about tomorrow. According to Fatmah, the pain is about an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. Perfect. Well, at least I'm not as pain lousy as Rachel! Hahah. I'll rmb to bring it Tuesday lah Crae. Shit or are you Zy?! *smacks forehead* I can never remember!

I, will go try to do something useful instead of sitting on my (not so) sorry ass in front of the computer. OMG DID YOU HEAR THAT!? Shit, the damn tv's calling my name!

Wow crap. My Heart Will Go On is playing now! I'm flying Jack..

I saw something really gross this week, and that image wont be leaving my mind anytime soon. Lol.

I've no idea how to end this post! Oh right. How about some lovely pictures? I know you likey!

Nuzie and Huda

The "princesses" (insides, so don't assume lah walau)

Enlightenment from one Hispanic girl

Today has been pretty good, actually. I like this weather. Cold and unwelcoming, maybe. But there's just something about "bad" weather that makes it good. Do I make sense?

This week is really, the longest one I've had to go through in a long long time. I don't know whether to be thankful or worried sick the fact that it's done with.

When I think of never-ending days, I think of camps. I'm reminded of all the ATCs, where each and every time my group would be a pretty cool bunch of people. Not forgetting OAC! (Talking about it just now just really brought back a lot of memories.) And yes. NCO camp, where I screwed up the opening parade; a bag of nerves.

And of course. Annual camps in school. Which reminds me that one is coming right up! Good luck Aries. (:

As I was saying. This week... *draws in a quick breath* I shan't comment any further. So why did I bring it up again then!? My state of mind right now, is quite questionable.

Let me tell you a secret. This was what I did the day before the Literature Paper last week..



Okay, so they played. I um.. tried? Miserably, may I add. Yeah I know. Nuts. Considering we didnt really know Krishna inside out! (Ew. Gross image there.)

***

We had a mini lit session today at Raffles City. It turned out (surprisingly, haha) to be pretty productive! So we did get distracted.. Growing Up (yes that local series everyone loved), Channing Tatum, incest, forseeing our results and random things like that. Heh. And yeah man. The post lit session rocked hard too! Hello newly bought things! :D

I managed to catch Spanglish last night. A great movie to me, though it bombed at the Box Offices? *shurgs* The mother's really pretty! And gosh. Adam Sandler! I thought his wife in the movie, Tea Leoni looks kinda like Sharon Stone? A hotter version.

There were a couple of great scenes. Loved especially the one where Adam Sandler and Paz Vega were at the restaurant threading on dangerous grounds. Hot. Although a scene I call "hot" wouldnt usually be that. "HOT" would be Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie trying to kill off the other and end up having great make up sex in Mr and Mrs Smith. But hey, it was sweet enough for me!

Well, I am my mother's daughter. So I'll get through it the way she does each and every single time.

We'll see.
